TSA should profile travelers and stop groping citizens

I’ve finally reached my breaking point now that the TSA is groping American citizens in the name of national security. We have this intrusion into our personal liberty simply because the powers that be refuse to recognize that the threat is not from children, grandmothers or ordinary citizens, but from radical Muslim men ages 18-49, with 26 being the most active age bracket for an Islamic terrorist.

The liberal media goes crazy when you mention profiling, but if it wasn’t for profiling, most major police departments couldn’t do their job. If there is a bank robber and witnesses identify him as a man of Chinese or Asian descent between 5 feet 6 inches tall and 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighing 140-150 pounds, would it make sense for the police department to not alert banks in town or to say, “Let’s dismiss the information we have and put out an alert for blonde-haired, blue-eyed white males over 6 feet.”

No one in their right mind would do that, yet that’s what our government is doing. They are ignoring the empirical data of who the terrorists are and punishing innocent citizens.

I also don’t agree that we all have to be subjected to this invasion of our persons in the name of safety. When I see a 5-year-old boy with his shirt off or hear of a man getting his urostomy bag spilled all over him by an inept screener, it’s time we stepped up to the plate and told the government “no more!”

I don’t think we need to check people flying from Detroit to Atlanta, for instance. The threat comes from overseas, and thank God we haven’t heard from the terrorists who are already here by coming through our joke of a southern border.
